When the Labour Council brought in the ALMO (Arms Length Management Organisation) they promised an injection of cash for repairs and better standards. 2 years down the line there is more crime and more squatting and their promise has been broken!
This drawing is by children from Lancaster West estate and was assembled by artist Constantine Gras and exhibited in June 2016 on the neighbouring Silchester estate, which is threatened with demolition and redevelopment by Kensington and Chelsea council.
In contrast to the description of their homes by journalists and politicians as ‘antisocial, high-maintenance, disempowering, unnecessary, ugly and never truly safe’ (Neil Jenkins), as ‘shoddy, second-rate, lumpen, inhumane and repulsive’ (Andrew Gimson), as ‘criminally unsafe hutches’ that ‘should be demolished’ (David Lammy) and ‘systematically torn down’ (Sadiq Khan), this collective representation by the children that live on the estate shows how strong the Lancaster West community is, and how much they enjoyed living in Grenfell Tower.
There was nothing wrong with either the design or the build of Grenfell Tower. Four decades of developer-led housing policy, government cuts to council budgets, the financialisation of UK housing, the managed decline of our estates by local councils preparatory to their demolition, the privatisation of housing management, the corruption of Kensington and Chelsea council and the criminal negligence of the Tenant Management Organisation killed the hundreds of families that lived in Grenfell Tower – not its architecture.
The interview is with Nicholas Paget-Brown, a former City marketing manager for the international news agency Reuters, and the Leader of Kensington and Chelsea council since May 2013, when residents of Grenfell Tower first began complaining about fire safety in their block. The Deputy Leader of the council and Cabinet Member for Housing, Property and Regeneration is Rock Feilding-Mellen, a private property developer.
We condemn the use of this man-made disaster to promote a ‘regeneration’ programme that already threatens hundreds of London estates with demolition, privatisation and the social cleansing of their communities. Our homes need maintaining by accountable public bodies, not managed decline by arm’s-length organisations on behalf of private property developers after the land they stand on.

The Layers of a Clown: Career Development in Cultural Production Industries
AMD-2015-0160.R2 from AMD Volume 3, Issue 2
by Patrick Reilly
Drawing from a roughly five-year participant-observation study of stand-up comedians in Los Angeles, this paper investigates the career development of artists within cultural production industries. This paper introduces and defines the model of a layered career. In the case of stand-up comedy, individuals progressively move through three layers. Each exhibits its own distinctive organizational bases, core challenges, interactional processes, relationship types, and rewards. While development involves an individual matriculating through layers, it also requires artists to maintain their participation in prior layers, because each layer is ideally suited for different aspects of practice, creativity, and social support. Careers in these contexts involve building a durable infrastructure rather than a simple passage through discrete statuses. Furthermore, one’s career progress depends upon the formation of relationships, particularly tight mentorships and arm’s length endorsements. This paper ties the layered career model to cultural production industries wherein development typically involves informal institutions, decentralized organizations, the accumulation of tacit knowledge, and the cultivation of novel creative identities. This paper emphasizes the applicability of the layered career model to the study of artistic careers. It also suggests this framework’s wider implications for research into contingent and informal employment.

We manage and look after more than 23,000 homes on behalf of Wolverhampton City Council.
We’re an Arms Length Management Organisation (ALMO) which was setup in 2005.
We love our city and we’re here to help provide good quality homes and great customer service for our tenants and leaseholders. We’re passionate about what we do – and we care about our city’s future.
Since 2005 we’ve been making improvements to more than 22,000 local homes. That was all part of our Decent Homes project which has saw us fit thousands of new kitchens and bathrooms and which made thousands of homes across the city more energy efficient. We finished that project in 2015 - but we’ve got some really exciting plans in place to carry on improving homes for years to come.
We were one of the first ALMOs in the country to be given a three-star ‘excellent’ company rating (Audit Commission, 2010) as well as being a two-star ‘outstanding’ company when it comes to employee engagement which has seen us listed in the Sunday Times Top 50 places to work in the not-for-profit sector for three consecutive years.
Our first ten years were really successful – here’s a quick look at our journey…

This video gives an overview of the Smart Communities Project Greater Manchester – a unique, international collaboration which sees leading edge heat pump technology applied to communities that will most benefit from increased efficiency and reduced energy bills.
Currently over 10% of the UK’s housing is owned or managed by social landlords – housing associations and local authorities. In Manchester, the project has paved the way for three local authority Arm’s-Length Management Organisations (ALMOs) to install and experience Daikin’s latest sustainable heat technology – allowing for a fascinating glimpse into the future of domestic heat.

Hi. I’m Lorie Marrero, creator of the Clutter Diet book and on-line program, and today we’re going to talk about how to manage paperwork. You know, most people don’t realize that there are five different types of paper and people might even argue with me that there are more. I’m sure it feels that way when your mailbox is full of stuff. But let’s look at what those five types are and you can kind of score yourself on how you’re doing managing those different kinds.
So first I want to talk about the reference paper you get, the kind of paper that all you need to do is keep for referring to later if you need it. The first type is called “quick reference.” So this is the kind you need to have at your fingertips that you want to have where you can grab it whenever you want it and get this information, so this is like cheat sheets. Okay? So this would be like our color pallet for our business, and the different fonts that we use, kind of a style guide. These are the different channels, this is some stuff about our phone system and a little HTML cheat sheet I have here, and a little word memory jogger. Things that you just kind of, yeah, you need every once in a while, and you just want to grab those quickly.
The next type of paper is called just plain “reference,” where you want it to be handy. Handy reference would be a filing cabinet. So you’ve got your just standard ordinary files and you don’t need to take action on those papers so you just put them away for later.
The third type of paper is called “archive,” which is paper you want to have at arms length. It is reference paper, but you really don’t need it nearby you, so you’re putting it away in a file box and maybe that goes in your attic or your basement or some kind of off-site storage place, depending on your situation.
Then we have a couple of different types left to talk about that are action related. These are papers that you need to do something with. First we have “quick action.” Those are bills, they are calls, things that you need to discuss with your manager, or your spouse, certainly there are other categories of items maybe if your children are in school, these are quick items for school papers for the kids, those things that you’re handling pretty fast and getting out of your hair.
And then you’ve got your “projects.” Now, I just made another video about all the different ways to manage a project, but one of the most popular ways is to get files and a desktop sorter so that you have a place to gather larger amounts of information to use collectively on something that has a beginning and an end to it that is a real project. So, you’ve got the desktop sorter and other ways to manage those that you can see [POP] in that other video.
Those are the five main types of paper. And then you, in addition, may have some reading material or other things too. But as far as what decisions need to be made when you’re sorting through that pile, those are the ones.
So how are you doing on these types of paper? Let us know in the Comments what your questions are and we’d be happy to help you out. And if you’d like even more help with that, we help people every day in our Member Message Board area at http://www.clutterdiet.com. You can come check us out and we are there seven days a week answering all of our Members’ questions.
We’ll see you next time, and may you always be happy and grateful for having more than enough.

Arms-length management organisation
In the United Kingdom, an arm's-length management organisation (ALMO) is a not-for-profit company that provides housing services on behalf of a local authority. Usually an ALMO is set up by the authority to manage and improve all or part of its housing stock. Ownership of the housing stock itself normally stays with the local authority. As of July 2008, seventy ALMOs were managing over half of all UK council housing, consisting of more than a million properties. This number has since reduced as local authorities have taken services back in-house or stock has been transferred, so that as of 2014 there are 47 ALMOs.
Ownership
ALMOs are owned by local authorities and operate under the terms of a management agreement between the authority and the organisation. An ALMO is managed by an (often unpaid) board of directors which includes tenants, local authority nominees, and independent members. At least a third of an ALMO board is normally made up of tenants.

Organization
An organization or organisation (see spelling differences) is an entity comprising multiple people, such as an institution or an association, that has a collective goal and is linked to an external environment.
The word is derived from the Greek word organon, which means "organ".
Types
There are a variety of legal types of organizations, including corporations, governments, non-governmental organizations, political organizations, international organizations, armed forces, charities, not-for-profit corporations, partnerships, cooperatives, and educational institutions.
A hybrid organization is a body that operates in both the public sector and the private sector simultaneously, fulfilling public duties and developing commercial market activities.
A voluntary association is an organization consisting of volunteers. Such organizations may be able to operate without legal formalities, depending on jurisdiction, including informal clubs.
Organizations may also operate in secret and/or illegally in the case of secret societies, criminal organizations and resistance movements.

Management
Management in businesses and organizations is the function that coordinates the efforts of people to accomplish goals and objectives by using available resources efficiently and effectively.
Management includes planning, organizing, staffing, leading or directing, and controlling an organization to accomplish the goal or target. Resourcing encompasses the deployment and manipulation of human resources, financial resources, technological resources, and natural resources. Management is also an academic discipline, a social science whose objective is to study social organization.
Etymology
The English verb "manage" comes from the Italian maneggiare (to handle, especially tools), which derives from the two Latin words manus (hand) and agere (to act).
The French word for housekeeping, ménagerie, derived from ménager ("to keep house"; compare ménage for "household"), also encompasses taking care of domestic animals. The French word mesnagement (or ménagement) influenced the semantic development of the English word management in the 17th and 18th centuries.

City council
A city council, town council, town board, or board of aldermen is the legislative body that governs a city, town, municipality or local government area.
Australia and New Zealand
Because of the differences in legislation between the States, the exact definition of a City Council varies. However, it is generally only those local government areas which have been specifically granted city status (usually on a basis of population) that are entitled to refer to themselves as cities. The official title is "Corporation of the City of ------" or similar.
Some of the larger urban areas of Australia are governed mostly by a single entity (see Brisbane and other Queensland cities), while others maybe controlled by a multitude of much smaller city councils. Also some significant urban areas can be under the jurisdiction of otherwise rural local governments. Periodic re-alignments of boundaries attempt to rationalize these situations and adjust the deployment of assets and resources.
Local councils in New Zealand do vary in structure, but are overseen by the government department Local Government New Zealand. For many decades until the local government reforms of 1989, a borough with more than 20,000 people could be proclaimed a city. The boundaries of councils tended to follow the edge of the built-up area, so little distinction was made between the urban area and the local government area.

The Layers of a Clown
The Layers of a Clown: Career Development in Cultural Production Industries AMD-2015-0160.R2 from AMD Volume 3, Issue 2 by Patrick Reilly Drawing from a roughly five-year participant-observation study of stand-up comedians in Los Angeles, this paper investigates the career development of artists within cultural production industries. This paper introduces and defines the model of a layered career. In the case of stand-up comedy, individuals progressively move through three layers. Each exhibits its own distinctive organizational bases, core challenges, interactional processes, relationship types, and rewards. While development involves an individual matriculating through layers, it also requires artists to maintain their participation in prior layers, because each layer is ideally suited ...

Wolverhampton Homes - Our Journey
We manage and look after more than 23,000 homes on behalf of Wolverhampton City Council. We’re an Arms Length Management Organisation (ALMO) which was setup in 2005. We love our city and we’re here to help provide good quality homes and great customer service for our tenants and leaseholders. We’re passionate about what we do – and we care about our city’s future. Since 2005 we’ve been making improvements to more than 22,000 local homes. That was all part of our Decent Homes project which has saw us fit thousands of new kitchens and bathrooms and which made thousands of homes across the city more energy efficient. We finished that project in 2015 - but we’ve got some really exciting plans in place to carry on improving homes for years to come. We were one of the first ALMOs in the coun...

Smart Communities Project
This video gives an overview of the Smart Communities Project Greater Manchester – a unique, international collaboration which sees leading edge heat pump technology applied to communities that will most benefit from increased efficiency and reduced energy bills. Currently over 10% of the UK’s housing is owned or managed by social landlords – housing associations and local authorities. In Manchester, the project has paved the way for three local authority Arm’s-Length Management Organisations (ALMOs) to install and experience Daikin’s latest sustainable heat technology – allowing for a fascinating glimpse into the future of domestic heat.

This drawing is by children from Lancaster West estate and was assembled by artist Constantine Gras and exhibited in June 2016 on the neighbouring Silchester estate, which is threatened with demolition and redevelopment by Kensington and Chelsea council.
In contrast to the description of their homes by journalists and politicians as ‘antisocial, high-maintenance, disempowering, unnecessary, ugly and never truly safe’ (Neil Jenkins), as ‘shoddy, second-rate, lumpen, inhumane and repulsive’ (Andrew Gimson), as ‘criminally unsafe hutches’ that ‘should be demolished’ (David Lammy) and ‘systematically torn down’ (Sadiq Khan), this collective representation by the children that live on the estate shows how strong the Lancaster West community is, and how much they enjoyed living in Grenfell Tower.
There was nothing wrong with either the design or the build of Grenfell Tower. Four decades of developer-led housing policy, government cuts to council budgets, the financialisation of UK housing, the managed decline of our estates by local councils preparatory to their demolition, the privatisation of housing management, the corruption of Kensington and Chelsea council and the criminal negligence of the Tenant Management Organisation killed the hundreds of families that lived in Grenfell Tower – not its architecture.
The interview is with Nicholas Paget-Brown, a former City marketing manager for the international news agency Reuters, and the Leader of Kensington and Chelsea council since May 2013, when residents of Grenfell Tower first began complaining about fire safety in their block. The Deputy Leader of the council and Cabinet Member for Housing, Property and Regeneration is Rock Feilding-Mellen, a private property developer.
We condemn the use of this man-made disaster to promote a ‘regeneration’ programme that already threatens hundreds of London estates with demolition, privatisation and the social cleansing of their communities. Our homes need maintaining by accountable public bodies, not managed decline by arm’s-length organisations on behalf of private property developers after the land they stand on.

The Layers of a Clown: Career Development in Cultural Production Industries
AMD-2015-0160.R2 from AMD Volume 3, Issue 2
by Patrick Reilly
Drawing from a roughly five-year participant-observation study of stand-up comedians in Los Angeles, this paper investigates the career development of artists within cultural production industries. This paper introduces and defines the model of a layered career. In the case of stand-up comedy, individuals progressively move through three layers. Each exhibits its own distinctive organizational bases, core challenges, interactional processes, relationship types, and rewards. While development involves an individual matriculating through layers, it also requires artists to maintain their participation in prior layers, because each layer is ideally suited for different aspects of practice, creativity, and social support. Careers in these contexts involve building a durable infrastructure rather than a simple passage through discrete statuses. Furthermore, one’s career progress depends upon the formation of relationships, particularly tight mentorships and arm’s length endorsements. This paper ties the layered career model to cultural production industries wherein development typically involves informal institutions, decentralized organizations, the accumulation of tacit knowledge, and the cultivation of novel creative identities. This paper emphasizes the applicability of the layered career model to the study of artistic careers. It also suggests this framework’s wider implications for research into contingent and informal employment.

We manage and look after more than 23,000 homes on behalf of Wolverhampton City Council.
We’re an Arms Length Management Organisation (ALMO) which was setup in 2005.
We love our city and we’re here to help provide good quality homes and great customer service for our tenants and leaseholders. We’re passionate about what we do – and we care about our city’s future.

Hi. I’m Lorie Marrero, creator of the Clutter Diet book and on-line program, and today we’re going to talk about how to manage paperwork. You know, most people don’t realize that there are five different types of paper and people might even argue with me that there are more. I’m sure it feels that way when your mailbox is full of stuff. But let’s look at what those five types are and you can kind of score yourself on how you’re doing managing those different kinds.
So first I want to talk about the reference paper you get, the kind of paper that all you need to do is keep for referring to later if you need it. The first type is called “quick reference.” So this is the kind you need to have at your fingertips that you want to have where you can grab it whenever you want it and get this information, so this is like cheat sheets. Okay? So this would be like our color pallet for our business, and the different fonts that we use, kind of a style guide. These are the different channels, this is some stuff about our phone system and a little HTML cheat sheet I have here, and a little word memory jogger. Things that you just kind of, yeah, you need every once in a while, and you just want to grab those quickly.
The next type of paper is called just plain “reference,” where you want it to be handy. Handy reference would be a filing cabinet. So you’ve got your just standard ordinary files and you don’t need to take action on those papers so you just put them away for later.
The third type of paper is called “archive,” which is paper you want to have at arms length. It is reference paper, but you really don’t need it nearby you, so you’re putting it away in a file box and maybe that goes in your attic or your basement or some kind of off-site storage place, depending on your situation.
Then we have a couple of different types left to talk about that are action related. These are papers that you need to do something with. First we have “quick action.” Those are bills, they are calls, things that you need to discuss with your manager, or your spouse, certainly there are other categories of items maybe if your children are in school, these are quick items for school papers for the kids, those things that you’re handling pretty fast and getting out of your hair.
And then you’ve got your “projects.” Now, I just made another video about all the different ways to manage a project, but one of the most popular ways is to get files and a desktop sorter so that you have a place to gather larger amounts of information to use collectively on something that has a beginning and an end to it that is a real project. So, you’ve got the desktop sorter and other ways to manage those that you can see [POP] in that other video.
Those are the five main types of paper. And then you, in addition, may have some reading material or other things too. But as far as what decisions need to be made when you’re sorting through that pile, those are the ones.
So how are you doing on these types of paper? Let us know in the Comments what your questions are and we’d be happy to help you out. And if you’d like even more help with that, we help people every day in our Member Message Board area at http://www.clutterdiet.com. You can come check us out and we are there seven days a week answering all of our Members’ questions.
We’ll see you next time, and may you always be happy and grateful for having more than enough.

This drawing is by children from Lancaster West estate and was assembled by artist Constantine Gras and exhibited in June 2016 on the neighbouring Silchester estate, which is threatened with demolition and redevelopment by Kensington and Chelsea council. In contrast to the description of their homes by journalists and politicians as ‘antisocial, high-maintenance, disempowering, unnecessary, ugly and never truly safe’ (Neil Jenkins), as ‘shoddy, second-rate, lumpen, inhumane and repulsive’ (Andrew Gimson), as ‘criminally unsafe hutches’ that ‘should be demolished’ (David Lammy) and ‘systematically torn down’ (Sadiq Khan), this collective representation by the children that live on the estate shows how strong the Lancaster West community is, and how much they enjoyed living in Grenfell Tow...

The Layers of a Clown
The Layers of a Clown: Career Development in Cultural Production Industries AMD-2015-0160.R2 from AMD Volume 3, Issue 2 by Patrick Reilly Drawing from a roughly five-year participant-observation study of stand-up comedians in Los Angeles, this paper investigates the career development of artists within cultural production industries. This paper introduces and defines the model of a layered career. In the case of stand-up comedy, individuals progressively move through three layers. Each exhibits its own distinctive organizational bases, core challenges, interactional processes, relationship types, and rewards. While development involves an individual matriculating through layers, it also requires artists to maintain their participation in prior layers, because each layer is ideally suited ...

Wolverhampton Homes - Our Journey
We manage and look after more than 23,000 homes on behalf of Wolverhampton City Council. We’re an Arms Length Management Organisation (ALMO) which was setup in 2005. We love our city and we’re here to help provide good quality homes and great customer service for our tenants and leaseholders. We’re passionate about what we do – and we care about our city’s future. Since 2005 we’ve been making improvements to more than 22,000 local homes. That was all part of our Decent Homes project which has saw us fit thousands of new kitchens and bathrooms and which made thousands of homes across the city more energy efficient. We finished that project in 2015 - but we’ve got some really exciting plans in place to carry on improving homes for years to come. We were one of the first ALMOs in the coun...

Smart Communities Project
This video gives an overview of the Smart Communities Project Greater Manchester – a unique, international collaboration which sees leading edge heat pump technology applied to communities that will most benefit from increased efficiency and reduced energy bills. Currently over 10% of the UK’s housing is owned or managed by social landlords – housing associations and local authorities. In Manchester, the project has paved the way for three local authority Arm’s-Length Management Organisations (ALMOs) to install and experience Daikin’s latest sustainable heat technology – allowing for a fascinating glimpse into the future of domestic heat.

This drawing is by children from Lancaster West estate and was assembled by artist Constantine Gras and exhibited in June 2016 on the neighbouring Silchester estate, which is threatened with demolition and redevelopment by Kensington and Chelsea council.
In contrast to the description of their homes by journalists and politicians as ‘antisocial, high-maintenance, disempowering, unnecessary, ugly and never truly safe’ (Neil Jenkins), as ‘shoddy, second-rate, lumpen, inhumane and repulsive’ (Andrew Gimson), as ‘criminally unsafe hutches’ that ‘should be demolished’ (David Lammy) and ‘systematically torn down’ (Sadiq Khan), this collective representation by the children that live on the estate shows how strong the Lancaster West community is, and how much they enjoyed living in Grenfell Tower.
There was nothing wrong with either the design or the build of Grenfell Tower. Four decades of developer-led housing policy, government cuts to council budgets, the financialisation of UK housing, the managed decline of our estates by local councils preparatory to their demolition, the privatisation of housing management, the corruption of Kensington and Chelsea council and the criminal negligence of the Tenant Management Organisation killed the hundreds of families that lived in Grenfell Tower – not its architecture.
The interview is with Nicholas Paget-Brown, a former City marketing manager for the international news agency Reuters, and the Leader of Kensington and Chelsea council since May 2013, when residents of Grenfell Tower first began complaining about fire safety in their block. The Deputy Leader of the council and Cabinet Member for Housing, Property and Regeneration is Rock Feilding-Mellen, a private property developer.
We condemn the use of this man-made disaster to promote a ‘regeneration’ programme that already threatens hundreds of London estates with demolition, privatisation and the social cleansing of their communities. Our homes need maintaining by accountable public bodies, not managed decline by arm’s-length organisations on behalf of private property developers after the land they stand on.

The Layers of a Clown: Career Development in Cultural Production Industries
AMD-2015-0160.R2 from AMD Volume 3, Issue 2
by Patrick Reilly
Drawing from a roughly five-year participant-observation study of stand-up comedians in Los Angeles, this paper investigates the career development of artists within cultural production industries. This paper introduces and defines the model of a layered career. In the case of stand-up comedy, individuals progressively move through three layers. Each exhibits its own distinctive organizational bases, core challenges, interactional processes, relationship types, and rewards. While development involves an individual matriculating through layers, it also requires artists to maintain their participation in prior layers, because each layer is ideally suited for different aspects of practice, creativity, and social support. Careers in these contexts involve building a durable infrastructure rather than a simple passage through discrete statuses. Furthermore, one’s career progress depends upon the formation of relationships, particularly tight mentorships and arm’s length endorsements. This paper ties the layered career model to cultural production industries wherein development typically involves informal institutions, decentralized organizations, the accumulation of tacit knowledge, and the cultivation of novel creative identities. This paper emphasizes the applicability of the layered career model to the study of artistic careers. It also suggests this framework’s wider implications for research into contingent and informal employment.

Hi. I’m Lorie Marrero, creator of the Clutter Diet book and on-line program, and today we’re going to talk about how to manage paperwork. You know, most people don’t realize that there are five different types of paper and people might even argue with me that there are more. I’m sure it feels that way when your mailbox is full of stuff. But let’s look at what those five types are and you can kind of score yourself on how you’re doing managing those different kinds.
So first I want to talk about the reference paper you get, the kind of paper that all you need to do is keep for referring to later if you need it. The first type is called “quick reference.” So this is the kind you need to have at your fingertips that you want to have where you can grab it whenever you want it and get this information, so this is like cheat sheets. Okay? So this would be like our color pallet for our business, and the different fonts that we use, kind of a style guide. These are the different channels, this is some stuff about our phone system and a little HTML cheat sheet I have here, and a little word memory jogger. Things that you just kind of, yeah, you need every once in a while, and you just want to grab those quickly.
The next type of paper is called just plain “reference,” where you want it to be handy. Handy reference would be a filing cabinet. So you’ve got your just standard ordinary files and you don’t need to take action on those papers so you just put them away for later.
The third type of paper is called “archive,” which is paper you want to have at arms length. It is reference paper, but you really don’t need it nearby you, so you’re putting it away in a file box and maybe that goes in your attic or your basement or some kind of off-site storage place, depending on your situation.
Then we have a couple of different types left to talk about that are action related. These are papers that you need to do something with. First we have “quick action.” Those are bills, they are calls, things that you need to discuss with your manager, or your spouse, certainly there are other categories of items maybe if your children are in school, these are quick items for school papers for the kids, those things that you’re handling pretty fast and getting out of your hair.
And then you’ve got your “projects.” Now, I just made another video about all the different ways to manage a project, but one of the most popular ways is to get files and a desktop sorter so that you have a place to gather larger amounts of information to use collectively on something that has a beginning and an end to it that is a real project. So, you’ve got the desktop sorter and other ways to manage those that you can see [POP] in that other video.
Those are the five main types of paper. And then you, in addition, may have some reading material or other things too. But as far as what decisions need to be made when you’re sorting through that pile, those are the ones.
So how are you doing on these types of paper? Let us know in the Comments what your questions are and we’d be happy to help you out. And if you’d like even more help with that, we help people every day in our Member Message Board area at http://www.clutterdiet.com. You can come check us out and we are there seven days a week answering all of our Members’ questions.
We’ll see you next time, and may you always be happy and grateful for having more than enough.

First we have “quick action.” Those are bills, they are calls, things that you need to discuss with your manager, or your spouse, certainly there are other categories of items maybe if your children are in school, these are quick items for school papers for the kids, those things that you’re handling pretty fast and getting out of your hair.
And then you’ve got your “projects.” Now, I just made another video about all the different ways to manage a project, but one of the most popular ways is to get files and a desktop sorter so that you have a place to gather larger amounts of information to use collectively on something that has a beginning and an end to it that is a real project. So, you’ve got the desktop sorter and other ways to manage those that you can see [POP] in that other video.
Those are the five main types of paper. And then you, in addition, may have some reading material or other things too. But as far as what decisions need to be made when you’re sorting through that pile, those are the ones.
So how are you doing on these types of paper? Let us know in the Comments what your questions are and we’d be happy to help you out. And if you’d like even more help with that, we help people every day in our Member Message Board area at http://www.clutterdiet.com. You can come check us out and we are there seven days a week answering all of our Members’ questions.
We’ll see you next time, and may you always be happy and grateful for having more than enough.
